What are the benefits of Service Packages over A la Carte Services?

It is my opinion that, other than a proofreader needing fresh eyes, the stages of editing are fluid and difficult to separate, as there is often a lot of overlap. A packaged service is therefore more comprehensive and intensive.

I have combined some of the individual services into packages for continuity and economy of effort, and I pass on the savings to my authors. It is less expensive to hire BFF Editing to do a package service than individual a la carte services.

No Fuss Package – 
This is a great optional service for the author who has worked with me before and is comfortable with my style and judgement, or for the author who is in a hurry and just wants it done and dusted. :) Especially good for shorter contemporary ebooks without complex world building or mid-series novellas, where I know the world and the author’s style.

  • Second pass to clean it all up - line and copy edits all inline
